Hi Brian;Excellent site. One request?!Is it possible to add your opass efficiency statto your advanced box scores?Seeing how you have established that it's the most predictive? I believe you now are using adj. y/a ? Just curious why you are using it? thanks Bill

I agree with Anon. It'd be nice to have net passing yards per attempt in the advanced box score. Currently I go to ESPN to find those numbers, despite the fact that ANFLS persuaded me to value that statistic.

Regarding fumbles. I include offensive fumbles (either lost or not) in the prediction/ranking model. It is relatively heavily regressed to account for its high variability. My hunch is that it's probably totally random except for one component--QB strip sacks.

Defensive forced fumbles do not correlate within season from week to week, so it is excluded.
